Grieving

In the book of fairy tales,
Girl meets boy,
They fall in love,
They marry,
They have children,
They live happily ever after.

In the book of melancholy,
The owl hoots,
The crow caws,
A loved child is taken,
A hole in the ground,
The heart bleeds.

Who understands?
Who says the right words?
Who soothes you with a balm?
Who lets you cry?
Who lets you grief without judging?

In the book of Christianity,
Reach out,
Cry out,
There is comfort,
There is healing,
There is light.
This is my story in a nut shell.
